Produktbeschreibung

Beyond a Growth Mindset School revisits Chris Hildrew's bestselling book examining the central tenets of mindset theory in light of new research - and how they apply to schools today. It explores the theories which underpin a growth mindset ethos and offers step-by-step guidance for school leaders to build an approach to teaching and learning that will encourage children to embrace challenges, persist in the face of setback and see effort as the path to mastery.

The book isn't about quick fixes or miracle cures but an evidence-based transformation of the way we think and talk about teaching, leading and learning. Drawing upon his own extensive experience and underpinned by the groundbreaking scholarship of Carol Dweck, Angela Duckworth and others, this fully updated new edition navigates the difficulties, practicalities and opportunities presented by implementing a growth mindset as follows:

• Forming a growth mindset curriculum
• Launching a growth mindset with staff
• Marking, assessing and giving feedback with a growth mindset
• Growth mindset misconceptions and potential mistakes
• Family involvement with a growth mindset
• The impact of technology on attitudes and approaches to learning
• Keeping a growth mindset when the system is fixed

Innovative and accessibly written, this thoroughly researched guide shows how a growth mindset ethos benefits the whole school community, from its students and teachers to parents and governors, and is a valuable resource for all educational leaders and practitioners.
